did you guys know that chocobos have been hatching this month??
they're only the most adorable thing i've ever witnessed
(it happens every year prompto grow up LISTEN I KNOW THAT)

look at this cute bastard: 3rr_Jlo.mp4

now here's a story
it's a bit of a tear jerker so you've been ~*warned*~
one of the mama chocobo at the petting zoo was pretty sick and
after she laid a single egg she had to be put down
we tried putting the egg in the other nests but it wouldn't fly with the other chocobo
instead we made our own nest and put lights to it to keep it warm

i don't know if it was the artificial warming up or what
but when this egg hatched it's the tiniest chicobo i've seen in my life

and i love it so much

here's a pic of us being the best of friends: 434_4Jt.png

he's not getting on too well with the rest of the chicks and
okay i'm gonna sound like a paranoid parent but
is he getting bullied???
every time i go by the pen he just jumps to my shoulder and hides
in my clothes or just hangs out on my head (go ahead make your jokes)
when my shift is over he gives me the saddest chirp kweh wark ever

so TL;DR what does a chocobo need to be happy and what does it need
when it's just a wee chick i'm not saying i'm keeping him but maybe i am

tl;dr

[mercurio]

i had a real good story going pitou!!!
did you at least click on the pix

[playdolls]

They look tasty. Are you just practicing your clickbait or what?

[mercurio]

they're chocobos not chickens...

um i just wanted help on how to look after a chicobo as a pet

[playdolls]

Are they commonly domesticated?

[quiet_storm]

He's already in the apartment, isn't he.

[mercurio]

they aren't wild or anything!
they're kinda like

.....
..

chickens

[mercurio]

he loves the laundry room

[playdolls]

That's not what domesticated means.
Anyway. Chickens don't make good pets.
They mostly just need to be fed and kept warm.

[mercurio]

i just wanna make sure he grows healthy and strong!
and then he can be free to look after himself

[quiet_storm]

You want to keep him in the same apartment as Ruby?

[playdolls]

That's not how animals work. Imagine sending a housecat out into the wild.

[mercurio]

then i'll keep him
and look after him forever

[kittycaterer]

uh
chocobos get pretty big you guys live in a two bedroom

[playdolls]

Do you have enough room for that? Don't those things get big?

[mercurio]

for now!! they can grow up as......siblings

[mercurio]

..

@noctisluciscaelum

get me a big patio

[kittycaterer]

im telling you right now
you cant afford the interest on that

[quiet_storm]

If it's still a chick it needs to be hand-raised.
At least until it can hold its own against the other ones on the ranch.

I hate to say it but Prom's right.

I don't care that it's a runt now it will grow

[playdolls]

you probably need stable space.

[mercurio]

omg that's it

help me come up with a plan as to what kinda place i need to live in to raise this chocobo chick the RIGHT way

[quiet_storm]

Are you planning to watch them all day with a squirt bottle when you're going to college full time and have how many part-time jobs?

[mercurio]

what do you mean you HATE TO SAY IT???
i'm happy you agree but also omg at what cost

[mercurio]

it needs me
